...goes to ME!!!

for achievement in the field of doughing-in in my hot liquor tank instead of my mash tun.

Thank you, thank you *takes a bow*... I'd like to thank myself for having an HLT and MLT that look exactly the same. I'd also like to thank myself for not noticing the absence of a stainless steel braid.
 
Maybe "Amateur" ******* of the Day award :) I think you have to screw up way bigger to earn the full on Pro-level DotD prize. But very nice submission.

I haven't won it yet today, but the day is young.
 
I might be a contender for trying to brew two batches and smoke a 9 lb pork butt on Labor Day.... This is a lot of work. :(
 
So what did you do to fix it, just wait till your mash was done and then pour them whole mess into you MLT?
 
I went ahead and transferred once I realized what I had done, right after I noticed that there was a lack of resistance at the bottom of the cooler when I was stirring in the grain. I heated some water to make up for temperature drop during transfer and just dumped it in my MLT.
 
I got you beat :D

This is my first time trying to juggle brewing and bottling at the same time. I decided I was going to bottle one batch while the fresh wort cooled. I racked to my bottling bucket, and was about to commence bottling when I realized I never added priming sugar!
 
this is the very reason why I don't heat my sparge water in my HLT until my mash is already going in my MLT!
 
Not as bad, but I bought a new scale for my grain and toasted 8kg of grain instead of 8 lbs. It still made a good fat tire clone.
